The Ministry of Health of Argentina has issued a resolution that bans the import, sale, distribution, and advertising of electronic cigarettes and their accessories, citing the potential harm these products can cause to public health. The resolution signed by Health Minister Carla Vizzotti prohibits the use of electronic devices intended for inhaling tobacco vapors or aerosols, including “Heated Tobacco Products” (HTPs), which consist of a tobacco stick and a battery-powered tobacco heating device.
